06.12.2024 SL No.8 srm/Mujahid (Rejected) Calcutta High Court In The Circuit Bench at Jalpaiguri C.R.M. (A) 967 of 2024 In Re: - An application for anticipatory bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973/Section 482 of the B.N.S.S. 2023 filed on 29.11.2024 in connection with Naxalbari P.S. Case No. 262/2024 dated 07.11.2024 under Sections 103(1)/3(5) of B.N.S.

And In the matter of: Santana Roy @ Santana Barman& ors ....Petitioners Mr. Abhilash Mittal ...for the petitioners Mr. Nilay Chakraborty, Mr. Sourav Ganguly ...for the State The petitioners pray for anticipatory bail on the ground that they have been falsely implicated. The death of the victim was accidental.

Learned Additional Public Prosecutor hands over the case diary and opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. Investigation is at its nascent stage.

We have considered the post mortem report. From the materials available, we are not inclined to extend the benefit of anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail is rejected. (Partha Sarathi Chatterjee, J.) (Shampa Sarkar, J.)
